I had a home energy audit performed recently. Subsequently, I had my 22 year old furnace and air conditioner and 13 year old hot water heater replaced with high efficiency models. I intend to track my electric and gas usage for the period of the challenge in comparison with the same time frame last year. Additionally, I will look for even more ways to reduce usage.

Andy Opperman 10/28/2016 8:45 PMHey Audrey, good job on the EcoChalleng! I don't understand why you don't have any of the energy challenges showing "completed." I can tell by your posts that you were cognizant of the issue many days. Did you just forget to check that challenge off? It was fun reading your posts!

Audrey Dorofy 10/27/2016 2:27 PMI am trying to decide what I want to comment on today. The rain (yay!) which is needed because we are in an impending drought situation? The eggplant parm for dinner? The fact that I bumped up my thermostat setting this morning because I just CAN'T get up and face 63 degrees indoors? -
Audrey Dorofy 10/26/2016 5:52 PMInterestingly enough, my gas usage for last month went up. It appears that the new hot water tank has a larger capacity than the old tank. So even though more energy efficient overall, it is heating more water so using more gas. -
Audrey Dorofy 10/25/2016 4:50 PMI ate my fruits and veggies. But I feel like I should have subtracted something for eating a bagel one of the guys at work brought in. It was a great bagel though. Maybe I should have put veggie cream cheese on it. : ) -
Audrey Dorofy 10/24/2016 3:18 PMI was down sick for the past few days. So I couldn't get to the farmer's market as planned. I am currently eating veggies that were formerly in the freezer. Fresh is so much better. -
Audrey Dorofy 10/20/2016 3:57 PMI have decided that the challenge "eat 4 cups of fruits/vegetables" is not properly worded. It should be based on servings, not cups. I ate 2 cups of raw spinach earlier this week. Good so far. Then today, I took those same 2 cups and cooked them. Now I have about 1/2 a cup. Yesterday, I made a chopped salad; chopping everything also greatly reduced the volume. I am going to go with pre-cooking, pre-chopping volume for the greens. Otherwise, I am going to *turn* green trying to meet the challenge. -

Audrey Dorofy 10/16/2016 5:02 PMBusy weekend. I forgot to log in yesterday. At this point, I can't remember if I managed to get all my veggies eaten or not. At least I am sure about today.-
